This research was undertaken as part of a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) structured through the 2017 Penn State CHANCE Program in Cuba. Experiential learning in the field allowed for the examination of farming methods as they relate to agricultural sustainability. Green roofs could enhance the quality of living and introduce many benefits to urban settings. It is recommended that Cuba begin to look into constructing green roofs and creating policies that facilitate this practice.
